is it possible to love someone 7 years older than you and you being fairly young?

Question

i like a guy who is older than me and people are all saying its wrong and hes out there 4 sex but hes not what can i do to at least make people accept that i love him

Answer 1

As long as you both are over 18, go for it.

Answer 2

Age is just a number. My husband is 15 years older than I am. One of those, "Yeah, and?" things; age really is no barrier. I'm still pretty young, too, just turned 20. However, as someone previously mentioned, if you're like 13, then that's just morally wrong,, that's a person taking advantage of the other. Besides the fact it's illegal in most countries and states, until at least 16.
About how to make people accept him; accept him yourself. And give it time. It won't be easy at first, granted; people will ask you "What are you doing", just tell them that you love him, and it's what you want with your life. If people keep pressing you about it, stand your ground, just say that he's what makes you happy, he's what yo want in life.
Good luck. And if he trully is what you want in your life, don't give it up; true love isn't something you come by every day. Age really does not matter in the long run of things.

Answer 3

When is the big thing, You say 7 years. But when makes a difference.I am 13 years older than my wife, but she was 26 when we met. No comments by anyone. The fact that you have comments would indicate that you are really young and your relationship is most likely illegal and immoral . When you ask such a question please give ages.

When I was 20 my wife was 7. what would you think of that. the fact that I said 13 years difference means nothing within itself.

You seek validation of your relationship. Re enter your question giving both your ages and the results in answerer's may change drastically.

When I was a young man , many teenage girls professed their crushes, I never took advantage of this. Time is everything.

I sincerely hope I was of some help

Answer 4

It depends how old you are. If you are 13 or 14, and he is 20 or 21, any sexual relationship would be illegal. If you are 18 or 19, I don't think that there is any problem with the age difference. A recent study showed that the most successful marriages and relationships involve partners that are six years apart in age. So, as long as you are legally an adult, go for it. If you're still a young teen, listen to your friends who say that it is wrong and won't work.

Answer 5

most people will tell you that age is just a #, which it is. but when it comes to relationships you have to look at it from a different view. one, how old are you and how old is he? if it's ia case of you being a teen and him being in his 20's or older you have a slimmer chance of it working then if you were in your 20's and him in his 40's. females mature faster then males and therefore are more adapt to seek someone who they feel are at the same level of matureity. men on the other hand, depending on the age of the guy doesn't want to be be joked on for having someone who is drastically younger then him as well unless of course the case is that he's in it for sex or a "trophy wife". also you have to look at it from the point of view as far as interests go. is this someone that you shares the same interest as you and who is going to be willing and capable of fulling them with you as time goes on. and secondly, follow your gut instinct. there was 18 yrs difference in my parents ages and they were together till my father passed away (they were married over 30 some odd yrs) and i'm the youngest child they had out of 5 (just turned 35). no matter what you decide you and only you can decide what is best for you. just follow your heart and let fate do the rest.

Answer 6

It depends on how old you are NOW. If you're still in your teens, I would say he's too old for you. Remember, you could be giving him a prison sentence if you are with him and you're too young, no matter whether you love each other or not. If he really loves you, he will wait for you. You've probably heard that a dozen times, but it is true.

If you're in your 20s, I think that would be all right. An age difference of 7 years isn't bad at all if you're both of age and mature.

Answer 7

what are ur actual ages? i met my husb when i was 21 and he was 28 so we were both adults and hes my soul mate/best friend. However if u are under 18 then i would say to pass on it. You are both in different stages of life and you are still growing as a person. By being with him u may end up giving up some of your goals and dreams.

Answer 8

Are you 14 and he's 21? Because if that's the case, then he IS only in it for sex. But if you're 20 and he's 27, then it can work.

Answer 9

it is possible, my boyfriend is 8 years younger than me, and we have been together six months now, and this is the happiest time of my life. there is noone in the world better than him. so don't listen to them, and just stick with being with him. after you have been together for a while they will learn to accept the fact that you two are together and it is not just the sex. that is what i have learned that people realize that you are more than just a fling.
